GitHub - fedora-python/portingdb: Database & tools to track Python 2 removal from Fedora (original) (raw)

A database of packages that still need Python 2 in Fedora, and tools to manage it.

This software is a mess. It was created for one purpose and was expected to not be needed soon. Meanwhile, hacks are piling on.

Deployed report

A HTML report is located at:

https://fedora.portingdb.xyz/

Unless you want to refresh data there, or run additional reports, you can just look at that.

Installation

This software is not released. To install it, first set up aPython virtual environmentwith Python 3.7+. Then run directly from Git working directory:

(venv) $ pip install --editable .  # Mind the dot at the end!

Usage

To start a HTML report server, start:

(venv) $ export PYTHONPATH=.
(venv) $ python -m portingdb serve

Check drops

There is a script that checks what python2 packages can be dropped from Fedora during the Mass Python 2 Package Removal.

Change your Python virtual environment to include system side packages:

(venv) $ cat venv/pyvenv.cfg
...
include-system-site-packages = true
...

Reactivate if needed:

(venv) $ deactivate
$ . venv/bin/activate

And run it with:

(venv) $ python -m portingdb --datadir data/ check-drops

See the docstring of portingdb/check_drops.pyfor more info.

Freezing

A static website with the HTML repot can be build by:

(venv) $ export PYTHONPATH=.
(venv) $ python elsasite.py freeze

You can add --serve for he freeze command to immediately inspect the result.
